We went the Foster/Adopt route and took the riskiest route (emergency placements). Basically, we took in Foster children with no prior history and they are the ones most likely to be returned to bio-family. We were extremely fortunate - neither of our foster children were returned to bio-family and we were able to adopt them after they had been in our home for 14-15 months. They were 10 and 24 months when they arrived and were 2 and 3 years old when we adopted. Once we finished the second adoption, we closed our home. With 3 beautiful, blue-eyed children running around we felt we had our Full House! I wish you the best of luck.
